A new starting khorne thread...

in the first thread on the chaos page, the "starting a chaos army" I wrote out a bit about starting up a khorne army there. Basically, for my own army I take a really bottom heavy list, as many troops choices as possible.

For my lord, I take a Daemon Prince on a bike, and a squad of bikers to accompany him. I actually NEVER take heavy supports, or power weapons (excluding my dp's dark blade). Sounds a bit crazy, eh? Well, given amount of melta bombs in my army, it never gives me any trouble.

Forget power fist, have champs with axe of khorne

I would get a Daemon Lord or Prince first. Then get 2 squads of Beserkers, a squad of Bloodletters and maybe a Predator for anti-armour. That should give you a good base list.

do you mean the chainaxe or the daemon weapon axe? because you can only take 1 daemon weapon per army, and it should probably go on your lord, not an aspiring champion. I do agree about forgetting the powerfist though, with furious charge you've got a great opporotunity initiativewise that is totally wasted with a powerfist. My as' have chainaxes, daemonic strength, mutation, melta bombs, and talismens. It works quite well.

Well if you mean Khorne as in World Eaters then check out this tactica.

The Axe of Khorne is not classified as a Daemon Weapon, so can be taken multiple times in an army.
